Hate Crime Awareness Week is a national week (11th October – 18th October 2025) of action to encourage local authorities, key partners and communities affected by hate crime to work together to tackle local hate crime issues. The York and North Yorkshire Inclusive Communities Joint Coordinating Group, will utilise this week to:
• Raise awareness of hate crime.
• Build trust in our services and confidence to report hate crime, whilst also promoting a diverse and inclusive workforce and community.
• Promote support services available to those who may suffer incidents of Hate Crime in North Yorkshire and the City of York.
This is supported by the Community Safety Partnerships, Safeguarding Adults Boards and Safeguarding Children Partnerships in York and North Yorkshire. Throughout the week there will be a number of free training events running and all partnerships will be sharing links to resources.
Details of training events and drop-in sessions can be found here:
